"The name of the place I mean to stay at—my own actual property—is called Coolnagurtheen," goes on Geoffrey, heedless of her censure. "Is it worth so much thought?" he says, bitterly. "It surely will not injure you fatally to lay your hand in mine for one instant." "But, my dearest, why? There is not the slightest danger now, and my horse is a good one, and I sha'n't be any time getting——".
